Europe and Central Asia Uzbekistan |
| description |
Uzbekistan is a lower middle-income
country located in Central Asia with a population of 30
million people and an economy that has been growing by over
8 percent per annum since the mid-2000s. The composition of
the workforce has also changed dramatically in recent years.
The higher education system is characterized by low access
and concerns about the quality and relevance of the skills
of its graduates. A recent regional skills study concluded
that Uzbekistan is experiencing a substantial shortage of
university graduates. The internal management of the higher
education system is fragmented, with different actors having
overlapping responsibilities, thereby making it difficult to
ensure system-wide accountability. In order to enable the
Uzbek higher education system to serve the economy and
student population well, the quality assurance system should
be compliant with global best practices while remaining
locally relevant. While reported overall state budget
spending on education, at around 8 percent of GDP, is one of
the highest in the world, the share of this spending on
tertiary education, at around 0.4 percent of GDP, is one the
lowest. In summary, Uzbekistan’s higher education system
needs to modernize to better adapt to needs of the country’s
economy. The report, having analyzed the sector in detail,
proposes measures to modernize the higher education sector
in Uzbekistan. |
